NORWAY GAS-Flows to Britain ease

* Exports to Europe total 315 mcm/day

* Flows to Britain fall by 5 mcm/day

* Maintenance to cut capacity in July

OSLO, July 3 (Reuters) - Norwegian pipeline gas exports to

Europe fell on Friday on lower deliveries to Britain, while

flows to continental Europe held steady, data from gas system

operator Gassco showed.

Pipeline gas supplies to Europe were running at 315 million

cubic metres per day (mcm/day) at around 1000 GMT, down 5 mcm

from volumes delivered on Thursday.

Norway's gas production capacity is expected to be reduced

due to a planned field maintenance by 51 mcm/day from July 4

until July 23.

While Gassco did not disclose the name of the field,

analysts at Thomson Reuters Point Carbon said the impact volume

indicated the maintenance would take place at the country's

biggest gas field, Troll.

The following table shows Norwegian gas pipeline flows

measured in mcm/day and changes from the previous session's

delivered volumes:

Destination Real time Pvs business Change

day (mcm)

Britain 84 89 -5

Germany & Netherlands 145 145 0

France 41 41 0

Belgium 45 45 0

Total (Swiss: FP.SW - news) 315 320 -5

NOTE (Stockholm: NOTE.ST - news) : Real-time gas export figures are based on gas fed into

the system at a certain time and calculated as a daily average.

Levels can vary throughout the day as producers adjust the

amount of gas they export, according to changing nominations, or

orders, from customers.

Volumes for the previous business day show delivered gas.
